Hey
01:27
< Mantisking>
Hey. Things are really dead in here.
01:28
< Shades_Corvid>
At the moment, yes they are which is one reason I made the post I did on Facebook and G+
01:30 Mantisking_ [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-rg9mk7.ma.comcast.net] has joined #mf0
01:30
< Mantisking_>
Okay. I'm going to run out for food.

01:31

and another king appears
01:31
< Mantisking_>
Well, I guess those posts worked. :-)

Crap, which green is the green I want.
01:34
< Mantisking_>
I did a bit of building today.
01:34
< addking>
I just got an email actually :P
01:35
< addking>
was working on a dvr / video camera system for a friend. but I can't fix it here, cuz I dont' have another monitor at the moment. =/
01:35
< addking>
on the upside his USB hard drive works! ;)
01:35
< Shades_Corvid>
Well, at least one thing was accomplished.
01:36
< Shades_Corvid>
I am just over here going over a large part list to make demo teams and building an order from pick a brick and making a wanted list on bricklink from what is missing.
01:36
< addking>
I'm doing something similiar on bricklink myself
01:36
< Mantisking_>
I modified two of these so they fit the IO Frigate limit. https://www.flickr.com/photos/35895569@N05/5758174709/in/set-72157644747145720
01:37
< addking>
yeah those skulls
01:37
< addking>
A friend of mine had a fire, I'm looking up a parts list for like 5 convicts.
01:38
< Mantisking_>
Damn, that sucks.
01:38
< addking>
I have travis, clips, and candleholders a plenty. need some extra 1x1 bricks, taps and half-pins.
01:38
< Mantisking_>
I also made another one of these. https://www.flickr.com/photos/35895569@N05/7422439188/
01:38
< addking>
Hoping to gift him a 5 man group for cheap.
01:38
< Mantisking_>
Well, I need one more brick to finish it.
01:39
< Mantisking_>
I also gathered up as many pieces as possible for another one.
01:39
< addking>
I only don't like the feet on those guys.
01:39
< addking>
feels to flipper-ish for me.
01:39
< Shades_Corvid>
Like the skull ship and that does suck, the fire thing. Was he alright?
01:39
< Mantisking_>
It seems like everyone complains about them.
01:40
< Shades_Corvid>
I was wondering how that head could be used. I think the feet are just 1 stud too long which is why people say what they do or maybe try a long cheese slope?
01:40
< addking>
yeah he's good, but he lost all his shit y'know? He's got a PC again, but it's taking a while to rebuild the house, he's at a rental. Lost his guitars and toys and all that family shit.
01:41
< Shades_Corvid>
At least there was no lose of life but still, loosing all your stuff like that, specially that importanted paper stuff (social security, etc) certainly doesn't feel good.
01:41
< addking>
I've got a couple other friends who are kinda in/out about playing MF0, so I was thinking I might just order like 100 taps and then hand 'em out.
01:42
< addking>
yeah it could have been worse.
01:42
< Mantisking_>
The funny thing is, those feet are normal for the takafashii. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=2886922
01:43
< addking>
We got him some dice and a player's guide and we had some slightly outdated copies of his RPG stuff, so he only missed a couple weeks while he was getting re-settled.
01:43
< Mantisking_>
Glad your friend is okay.
01:43
< addking>
Eh, I don't like 'em there either MK ;)
01:43
< Shades_Corvid>
still look like flippers
01:43
< Mantisking_>
Okay, I'm gonna skip out for some pizza.
01:43
< Shades_Corvid>
Alright
01:43
< Mantisking_>
And nurse my hurt feelings. :-D
01:44
< addking>
right on, sounds good actually. Ha. yes one piece sucks, DIE EGO DIE.
01:44
< Shades_Corvid>
Cool to see people coming together to help him out, I am sure it means a lot.
01:44
< addking>
Well, I want him to be up and playing again soon too, because y'know... I need players ;p
01:45
< Shades_Corvid>
I know generally pick a brick online can be a bit more pricy but this is such a big order that it will most likely be cheaper then trying to find enough vendors on bricklink to fulfill it.
01:45
< addking>
He's part of my regular gaming crew for boardgames and RPGs and MF0.
01:45
< Shades_Corvid>
*nods*
01:45 Rex [4a81f8c9@Nightstar-fsq7h2.mibbit.com] has joined #mf0
01:45
< addking>
PAB is more expensive but it is certainly easier to set-up an order
01:48
< Shades_Corvid>
yeah but when you start getting past 4 vendors the shipping and handling start adding up.
01:49
< addking>
sure, but for me, I'm after taps mostly today...
01:49
< addking>
so it's a matter of finding someone with a bunch
01:50
< addking>
I need at least 30
01:50
< addking>
I'm thinking 50 minimum
01:50
< addking>
would like to get 100
01:50
< Rex>
That's quite a bit.
01:51
< Shades_Corvid>
He is buying to share
01:51
< Shades_Corvid>
So many kings!
01:51
< Shades_Corvid>
arg, again to part search something on bricklink and have no idea what they would call it
01:52
< Shades_Corvid>
oh shit, the part number worked!
01:53
< addking>
can't find any 100 lots.
01:54
< addking>
hmm. 56 at one, 80 at other
01:58
< addking>
hmm. Ohio is pretty close.
02:02
< addking>
It's really annoying knowing they aren't gonna ever have bulk taps at a LEGO store.
02:03
< Shades_Corvid>
I thought someone got lucky once at a wall?
02:04
< Shades_Corvid>
when going page after page after page trying to find a part I can't help but think Eddie Izzard's Death Star Canteen, "this try is wet, this tray is wet, this tray is wet..."
02:04
< addking>
taps? Not that I've heard.
02:05
< addking>
I asked once and they said it wasn't likely, since sets don't build around them like mecha guys do. the clip/tap is an illegal connection.
02:07
< Shades_Corvid>
barely
02:09
< Shades_Corvid>
that piece that is common in shield making, any know what that is called on bricklink?
02:13
< addking>
which piece?
02:14
< Shades_Corvid>
a lot of people use them to make the sloped shields, mostly two pieces of it to make the shield
02:14
< addking>
joined with a boat round?
02:15
< Shades_Corvid>
I think I found it
02:16
< Shades_Corvid>
and yes?
02:16
< addking>
There's been a lot of shield designs ;P
02:16
< Shades_Corvid>
I have only have really noticed three kinds
02:17
< addking>
MittenNinja's been using 2 sloped bricks with a boat round on them lately.
02:19
< addking>
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=4855
02:20
< addking>
at least his last grey chub company had one built outta those

Captcha acting up or something?

arg, just one piece left to put on the order list and I can't figure out what bricklink calls it
12:04
< Shades_Corvid_>
I know, this is a repeating problem
12:07
< Ced23Ric>
Let me help.
12:07
< Ced23Ric>
Describe or show mthe piece.

< Shades_Corvid_>
It is the piece making the upper horns, LEGO calls it a dorsal fin
12:11
< Ced23Ric>
Sec.
12:13
< Shades_Corvid_>
I tried every name they might call it
12:13
< Shades_Corvid_>
Must be from one of the hold 'underwater' sets given the piece name
12:13
< Ced23Ric>
Be smart.
12:13
< Ced23Ric>
Go into LDD.
12:13
< Ced23Ric>
Click onto the part.
12:13
< Ced23Ric>
Lower left corner, get the part number.
12:13
< Ced23Ric>
Punch that number into the Bricklink Catalog.
12:15
< Ced23Ric>
Alternatively, if you know a set that uses it, search for that set and check the inventory.
12:15
< Shades_Corvid_>
no number, or at least not on the part list generated by the Html instructions.
12:15
< Ced23Ric>
Yeah, you didn't listen to me. ;)
12:15
< Shades_Corvid_>
I have done the set trick on a few already, just not sure what set has that piece
12:15
< Ced23Ric>
Go into LDD, click on the part.
12:16
< Ced23Ric>
It'll give you a description in the lower left corner.
12:17
< Ced23Ric>
http://www.bricklink.com/catalogItem.asp?P=64727
12:17
< Shades_Corvid_>
just pulled it up too

thank you sir!

If the catalog fails, google for it: https://www.google.de/search?q=lego+part+64727
12:18
< Ced23Ric>
That'll find parts with IDs that have been changed, too.
12:21
< Shades_Corvid_>
there, everything is in pick a brick or a wanted list on bricklink, that took favor
12:21
< Shades_Corvid_>
forever even
12:25
< Ced23Ric>
I tend to become quite fast with it.
12:25
< Ced23Ric>
Print out 4-in-1 pages as a checklist, punch them into wanted lists, set quantities, search by shop and list, hash out as much as I can, purge list, get remaining parts.
12:26
< Ced23Ric>
Usually, no more than two trips per fleet/company.
12:28
< Shades_Corvid_>
really? though I haven't quite mastered the system I guess which is why I am turning to the LEGO pick a brick for this big order and using bricklink to fill in the gaps
12:28
< Ced23Ric>
Horrible. I'd rather rip my face off. :D
12:28
< Ced23Ric>
My first fleet was 750 bricks.
12:29
< Ced23Ric>
Two stores was all I needed.
12:29
< Ced23Ric>
As a matter of concept, I should maybe time a 1000 brick order.
12:29
< Shades_Corvid_>
I haven't it buy yet, it just...now I have it all there...
12:30
< Ced23Ric>
PaB is too expensive and shitty. I rather use BL.
12:30
< Ced23Ric>
Y'know, I'll do that now. Just FRAPS the shit and talk over it.
12:31
< Shades_Corvid_>
FRAPS?
12:31
< Ced23Ric>
It's a recording software.
12:38
< Shades_Corvid_>
Now you got me thinking of putting everything on a wanted list and comparing...which I should do realy
12:43
< Ced23Ric>
Yupp.

18:22
< Ced23Ric>
I figured it might help someone. Or, was hoping it would.
18:24
< Rex>
I've been messing around with it here and there but this shows me pretty much everything so that I don't have to fill in the gaps with maybes and probablys.
18:24
< Ced23Ric>
Argueably, that is how I do it.
18:24
< Ced23Ric>
I am sure there are other ways.
18:26

I'm going to go help my stepfather out with some yard work, hopefully there's discussion on this setting thing while I'm away.

Here's hoping for wiggle room for mercenaries.
19:35

Well that was shot lived.

19:49
< Ced23Ric>
Got a picture?
19:49

No big deal.
19:49
< locas>
no
19:49
< locas>
to the picture, yes to the sorting
19:49
< Ced23Ric>
Care to make one`?
19:49
< locas>
of what specifically
19:50
< locas>
you told me to "take a picture of me taking a bath in them"
19:50
< locas>
I did not take it seriously
19:50
< locas>
Rex, did you lose a hand???
19:50
< Ced23Ric>
Of the decals. Something cool to share with those who are involved.
19:50
< Ced23Ric>
And I need an email address to send you the list(s).
19:51
< locas>
I'd have to charge my phone
19:51
< locas>
locastambien@gmail.com
19:51
< locas>
I'd have to FIND my phone
19:51
< Ced23Ric>
Go ahead. ;D
19:51
< locas>
I mean, I could just ship them
19:52
< Rex>
It's just a 1 inch gash on the side of my hand under the knuckle. It's a little deeper than the skin, not much blood.
19:53
< Ced23Ric>
Sorry, I didn't figure a picture to be much work.
19:53
< locas>
ah, that's not bad
19:53
< locas>
Ced23Ric, it's whatever, maybe I'm just in a bad mood
19:53
< locas>
it just felt like you were acting like this was something I should do/should already have done
19:53
< locas>
like an expectant boss
19:54
< locas>
I'm definitely in a bad mood though
19:54
< locas>
>_>
19:54
< locas>
don't read into it
19:54
< Ced23Ric>
Yeah, you are in a bad mood there.
19:54
< Ced23Ric>
I was really ust asking if you could snap a picture for funsies.
19:54
< locas>
this is why I'm unemployed
19:54
< Rex>
It's just deep enough that I'm done because I don't want saw dust and bits of bark or whatever getting stuck in it. Digging it out would suck.
19:55
< locas>
the MaK ones are cool, most of them are a weird size for LEGO though
19:55

I hope the MaK people want to use them for actual MaK
